In need of something sweet and easy to make? Here's my frozen banana recipe. Simple and quick to make - the whole family will enjoy it. It's pumpkin spice season (when is it not), so let's make this one seasonal.

We often hear that being a vegan is expensive. I am here to tell you that this is not true. Here's why. We often talk about vegan nutrition as being expensive, it is because we think that vegans are buying luxury foods, such as a non-vegan who buys lamb from time to time, but this is not the case. An plantbased lifestyle is the least expensive lifestyle in the world. The vegan diet consists mainly of legumes, lentils, rice, vegetables, fruits, seeds and pasta, which are the cheapest foods on the planet.

July’s Vegan Little Life Box had a lovely package of Yupik Organic Dates which one could enjoy on their own or add to a few other simple ingredients and make an amazing vegan dessert. Our favourite vegan dessert book that includes dates is “Rawsome Vegan Baking by Emily Von Euw”.

Do you love smoothie bowls like me? What better way to garnish your smoothie bowls than with granola. Granola bought in stores can sometimes contain a lot of refined sugar. So i've decided to share my granola recipe that doesn't have any refined sugar in it. 

In our house there is never a bad time of year for soup!  There are soups full of comforting root vegetables for Autumn,  hearty warm-me-up soups for Winter, simple light broth or raw soups for Spring cleansing and then there is this wonderful Mushroom Barely soup that you can have in all four seasons!  

Here are 4 places in New York that should not be missed if you are vegan or just curious

Ingredients: -1 1/2 frozen banana -1/2 cup frozen blueberries -1 packet of frozen unsweetened Acai puree (found in all health groceries) -1 medjool date -1 tablespoon Justins almond butter -1/4 fresh or frozen avocado -Almond milk to taste (the more you put the more it will be liquid) Instructions: Put everything in a blender. Mix until it is homogeneous. Put in a bowl. Garnish with your favorite fruits, granola and superfoods. For mine (as seen in the photo) I added raw cacao nibs, granola, raspberries, sliced ​​bananas, goji berries and chocolate coconuts. Enjoy!

The very last thing that most people want to talk about is digestive health. Everyone loves to talk about, eat, photograph and blog yummy foods, but what happens to it after the tasty enjoyment is usually a hushed conversation amongst only the closest of friends.  In a modern world where most people are eating on the run, not always able to have healthy choices, and maybe not even having enough time to chew their food properly, gut health has become an issue for many.

January’s Box had an amazing full sized jar of Justin’s Almond Butter and whatbetter way to use it than this? A perfect sweet treat!

With the increased interest in a vegan lifestyle there are many every day chainrestaurants who have added vegan burgers to their menu; we even found a 100%vegan burger restaurant http://boonburger.ca who has several Ontario locations.

If you are like me, January is a month which is full of hope. Putting the past year behind you and thinking of all the wonderful things that are to come in this new, fresh years beginning. Especially putting all the typical end of year over indulgence of goodies behind you. 

À Montréal, on regorge de restaurants de toutes les cultures et c’est une joie de pouvoir découvrir toutes sortes de nourritures et mets.  Du même fait, il existe une tonne de restaurants de falafels, chose qu’on adore. Pour essayer quelque chose de différent, je vous conseille FALAFEL avenue. 

J'ai récemment visiter la fameuse ville des Stars, où on peut facilement croiser une célébrité en allant prendre son café le matin ou en allant faire son jogging sur le Runyon Canyon, en après-midi.
